Causes of Depression

Causes of Depression

Psalms 33:2 “Praise the Lord with the harp; Make melody to Him with an instrument of ten strings”

• Disappointment:- Unfulfilled expectations

• Rejection:- Feelings of not being accepted

   When growing up, many go on to be what they wanted to be. But, some may change their minds, and thus end up going down a new road in life. Then there are those among us have, ‘unfulfilled expectations’. For one reason or another our dreams become, not just shattered , but ground down till there is nothing left of them.

Disappointment:- Unfulfilled expectations

Romans 5:5 “Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given unto us”

   Now we must watch, just be cause we have spent 5 out of 10 years studying for that job gone or applied for is ours by right. Even if we have done a favour for the person of whom is interviewing you. When we should really adopt the attitude of ...

“ I don’t expect anything .. I appreciate everything”

… this will help to protect not just your heart, but may be more importantly, it will help to prevent loosing your minds. Expectations will get ahead of you, because you helped this one or that one. Some of these expectations are going to set you up for a major disappointment. Because of these feelings, they are going to make you feel unwanted; unloved; disliked; discouraged; thus making you feel depressed, because you don’t understand why ‘nobody’ wants you.

Genesis 37:28 “Then Midianite traders passed by; so the brothers pulled Joseph up and lifted him out of the pit, and sold him to the Ishmaelites for twenty shekels of silver. And they took Joseph to Egypt”

   You may go on a date, then the next day, feeling let down because you never got 10 txt messages, even in some cases they would expect a marriage proposal, when truthfully we don’t have any right.

   When we do things, we must not only be sincere, but instead we do things with a humble heart, and not do something for some one, so that they ‘owe you one’. We are all made up differently, and thus act differently. Being this way will lead to heart ache. And disappointment. Which has left you feeling depressed, the other person don’t even know why you are feeling this way. Without realising you have gone down a road which has made you clingy & needy.

“ don’t expect anything .. appreciate everything”

2 Corinthians 8:14 “but by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may supply their lack, that their abundance also may supply your lack—that there may be equality.

   Only when you are dealing with God, can you expect anything, amen. Expect everything & appreciate everything, in other words God has given us everything we needed and not wanted, as God has already done plenty for us to be grateful. There are so many that, just because we have treated one’s in a certain way, then became disappointed n they don’t behave the same way back. We then would like to change the rules, for when we want something.

Ok on to another cause of Depression …

Rejection:- feelings of not being accepted

Acts 10:35 “But in every nation whoever fears Him and works righteousness is accepted by Him”

   Rejection, can cause the feeling of ‘One’s-Worth’, to go from feeling 100%, to 0 (zero, nil, Nada, Null, Cero, нуль), so your left feeling nobody wants/loves me, causing you to hide away. I know of some who believe it is better if they were dead; ‘that they are just using up oxygen, that someone else needs’. They believe they are insignificant, and so they lock themselves away, so much so that when they have to go out, they now have become ‘agoraphobic’. (meaning:- fear of being/going outside)

Proverbs 29:25 “The fear of man brings a snare, But whoever trusts in the Lord shall be safe”

   It is so important to remember that God loves you more purely than any Human can. But yet we still strive to be accepted in the World, that the World feels it a better place, and tells you so. The same goes … ‘Your on a hiding to nothing’ … in other words you will be depressed life because the World will never truly behave the way you want them, causing you to be depressed forever!

   With, social-media, the way it is, we now must have a million followers on ‘FaceBook; Twitter, Instagram; Snapchat, OR we find ourselves heading back down that ‘rejection’ road again, with a feeling of failure. Because of these social-media groups, are now intertwined in our lives it has caused to walk around with heads down, texting so much we’re loosing basic human interaction and one on one communication. Just look when look at a group of kids when passing, you’ll see little talking only moving their fingers on their phones. Just recently there was the Euro-Football competition , and because a couple of footballers missed a couple of penalties people were so cowardly, they thought by making up anonymous accounts, so they could call them vial names, as they did not have to stand in fornt of them and do this despicable acts.

1 Samuel 2: “Talk no more so very proudly; Let no arrogance come from your mouth, For the Lord is the God of knowledge; And by Him actions are weighed”

   As Christians we all should know that God loves us, we are the apple of His eye. (translated to the pupil of His Eye), He will have a great opinion of us. Now, this example below, you should write down and keep it in your pocket; wallet or purse or handbag. So that the moment you start to waver, you can pull this out and remind yourself who will always love you; help you; guide you. He will stave off the feeling of depression.

   Here’s the kicker, rejection can take you to a point of forming a phobia, of where you will actually start rejecting yourself before others do.

Example:- You stand and chat to those whom live

next door. The next time you see them, they smile

and wave to you as they get in their car, now they

just wave to you. This now unbeknown to them, you

think they don’t like you anymore. It’s not them, not

liking you, it’s just they are just busy, that’s all. Also

some people are more outgoing than others that’s all .

Every morning you should stand in front of the mirror, and tell yourself .. ‘You are the Apple of Gods eye’

1. The Holy Ghosts Relationship ...This is where only God & Jesus know the good & bad about you, but still love you unconditionally ..

2. The Inner Court Relationship … Is where you go to lunch, with different ones, stand and chat to them, ask after different ones your friend has talked about before ..

3. The Outer Court Relationship … I where we know each other, as we go to church together.

You would not put ‘Outer Court Relationships’ and place them behind the Vail, as they don’t know them well enough for this to happen. You would not put some ol’ Joe Bloggs off of the street, like behind the Vail, this would like taking a fish out of water, neither would cope.

Closing Prayer..

Thank you Lord for pouring out your blessings

from above. We come humbly to you in gratitude

& Praises. As you are our Castle, our High Tower.

You guide us through good & bad times, through

you we can do anything, in Jesus Name we pray.

Unfinished Life Building

“We are all Builders”

   We may not build any houses, or even Temples on a City street for human eyes to see, but everyone of us builds a fabric which God and His Angels see … Life is building … it rises slowly, day by day, down through the years. Every new life lesson is another brick, laid down with all the others. Every experience, every touch of another’s life on our, every influence that impresses us, every book we read, it’s every conversation we have, it’s every act of commonest days, adds something to the ‘invisible’ building. Not forgetting that sorrow too, has it’s place in preparing the stones to put life wall on, when in fact ‘ALL’ life furnishes the material for our builds.

#Our Today’s and yesterdays, are the blocks with which we build#

   There are many noble fabrics of Character reared in this World. But there are also many who would only low mean huts, void of beauty, which will be swept away in the testing fires of Judgment .. Malachi 3:2 “But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears? For He is like a refiner’s fire ” … there are many for whose life’s-work presents the spectacle of an unfinished building. These might have been a beautiful plans begin with, and work was promising for a time, but sadly work after a while was abandoned and just left standing with walls half built, a useless fragment of what it should have been, open and exposed to the elements, just an inglorious ruin telling no story. A moment of folly & failure, God sees them how we don’t. The highest tower may be more unfinished than the lowest to Him.

   We must try and forget that last sentence. There are lives which to our eyes only seem to have began, onlt to be abandoned, which to God’s eyes are still rising into more and more graceful beauty. Here is one who began His life’s work with all the ardour of youth and all the enthusiasm of a consecrated spirit. For a time his habd never tired, his energy never slackened , so much so friends expected great things from him …

# Then tragedy struck, his health gave way #

… the diligent hand lay folded now on his breast. His once enthusiasm no longer drives him, his work now lays unfinished, truly what a shame.

    But wait, he has not left an unfinished life’s-work as God sees it, he is resting in submission at the Masters feet, and is growing mean while as a Christian. The spiritual in his soul is rising slowly in the silence. Everyday is adding something to the beauty of his Character as he learns the lessons of patience, confidence; Joy; Love. His building at last will be more beautiful than if he had been permitted to toil on through many busy years, carrying out his plans. Instead he is fulfilling out God’s plans for his life.

NB: We must not measure Spiritual building by Earthly standards.

   There are too many life-buildings whose story tells only of shame and failure. Many people begin to follow Christ, and after a while turn away from their profession, thus leave only a pretentious ruin, to be laughed at by the World, and dishonour the Masters name.
Romans 1:24 “Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonour their bodies among themselves, “
   A large percentage of time that leads to many that just give up, this is down to ‘discouragement’. In one of Wordsworth poems, it tells of a pathetic story a struggling heap of unhewn stones ..
* Meaning of ‘unhewn’ .. not given a finished form .. or ..
.. Rough or unpolished
… the beginning of a sheepfold which was unfinished, with his wife and son (Michael), a highland shepherd dwelt for many years in peace. But trouble came which made it necessary that the Son should go away to do for himself for a while. After a period of time good reports came for him, but by and by (a while later) however sad news reached him, in the great dissolute city that he had given himself to evil courses. Such shame fell upon him that he was driven to seek a hiding place beyond the sea. The sad news broke his old fathers heart. He went (at least he tried) about as before, simply caring for his sheep ...

Tis believed by all.

That many and many a day he thither went,

and never lifted up a stone.

There by the sheep fold, sometime he was seen,

sitting alone, with his faithful dog,

then old, beside him lying at his feet,

the length of seven full years from time,

to him, he at the building of his

sheep fold wrought, and left the work

unfinished when he died.

… years after the sheep fold was gone, the the remains of the unfinished fold were still there, a sad memorial of one began to build but did not finish. As deep sorrow broke his heart, and hence his hand slackened.

   All too often noble ‘Life-buildings’ are abandoned in time of sorrow, the hands that were once quick and skilful, are now over come with grief, now hang down low. Instead however, if teaching us to give up our work, and falter in our diligence, it should inspire us to yet greater earnestness in all duty fidelity in all life.

   Want of faith is another cause which lead many to abandon their ‘Life-Temples’ unfinished. Throngs followed Christ in the earlier days of His ministry when all seemed bright. Who when they saw the shadow of the cross, who then turned their backs and walked no more with Him, as they felt they had lost their faith, in Him. It is startling to read how near the ‘Apostles’ came to leaving their ‘Life-Buildings’ in Him unfinished. Had not their Faith come again after Christ arose, (as He had said many times), they would have left in this World only sad memorials of failure, instead of glorious finished temples. In these days there are too many abandoning of their work on the wall of the temple of Christian discipleships, which they had begun to build. Who does not know, of someone, who were once earnest & enthusiastic in Christian life there was but little opposition, but who fainted & failed when it became a little hard to confess Christ and walk with Him?

Luke 24:6&7 “He is not here, but is risen! Remember how He spoke to you when He was still in Galilee, 7 saying, ‘The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again”

   Sin in some form draws many a builder away from his work, to leave unfinished, see if you know someone who fit the description below …

• It might be the Worlds fascination that lures them from Christ’s side ..
• It might be the sinful human companionships that lure him away from loyal friendship to His Saviour ..
• It might be riches that enter his heart and blind his eyes to the attractions of Heaven ..
• It might be some secret lust that gains power over him, and paralyses his Spiritual life ..

… many of these are among the Worlds throng, who once sat at the Lords table, and were among God’s people. Unfinished ‘Life’s-buildings’, there are towers begun with great enthusiasm and then left to tell sad stories to all who pass by. They begun to build and were not able to finish.

2 Timothy 4:7 “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith”

   Life is not a sprint, it’s a marathon, a very long hard, arduous and dangerous. It’s dad to think how much of this unfinished work Gods Angels see when looking down upon Earth. Think of all the good beginnings which come to anything in the end. I wonder how many people of have started a course at some University, to either take a ‘gap-year’, or just suddenly change subjects, to the opposite to their original studies .. like Lawyer to Veterinarian? It really happens more than you would think. The ‘noble-life-plans’ entered upon by so many young people with ardent enthusiasm, but all too easily give up. Think of all the beautiful visions and fair hopes which might have been made splendid realities, but which just fade out, leaving no record of effort.

Hebrews 12:1 “Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us“

   The business World is also littered with builds many had begun to build, as quickly they begun they were gone. These too might have set out with good intentions & much enthusiasm, but tired at length with the toil, or grew disheartened at the slow comings of success, and thus abandoned their ideal when it was ready to be realised. Many homes present the spectacle of thousands of abandoned dreams of love. If you scratch the surface you’ll see more than you can count. For a time the beautiful vision shone, and two hearts sought to make it come true, and then gave it all up in despair .

Ecclesiastes 9:11 “The race is not to the swift, Nor the battle to the strong, Nor bread to the wise, Nor riches to men of understanding, Nor favour to men of skill; But time and chance happen to them all”

   Life everywhere is full of beginnings never carried onto completion. But alas, the Visions, the Hope, the Purpose, the Resolves, never grew into more than just beginnings. Gods Angels would bend down upon the great wilderness of abandoned, unfinished fabrics, bright possibilities unfinished, noble-might-have-bins, abandoned, ghostly ruins now, just sad memorials of only failure.

   What is the lesson from all this, is may be, that we should allow nothing to draws us away from our duty, that we should never weary of following Christ, that we should hold fast to the beginning of our confidence, steadfast unto the end ...
Isaiah 5:27 “ No one will be weary or stumble among them, No one will slumber or sleep”
… we should not falter under any circumstance, not in the face of danger, before any demand of cost or sacrifice, there is .. NO Discontentment .. NO Sorrow .. NO Worldly attractions .. NO Hardships should weaken for one moment, or termination to be faithful unto death. NO one has begun to build for Christ should have an unfinished, abandoned ‘life’s-work’ to grieve the heart of the Lord, they were gone. The lesson we should take from this is that we need to finish our work, and never grow weary, that we should not let anything draw us away, from our duty.

   We should never grow weary at following Christ Jesus, that we should hold fast to the beginning of our confidence, being steadfast to the end. We should not falter any burdens, in the face of any dangers, before any sorrow, no Worldly attractions .. .No hardship should weaken for one moment our destination to be fulfilled unto death. No one who began to build for Christ, should leave an unfinished abandoned life’s-work to grieve the heart of the Master and to be sneered at as a reproach to the name He bears.

   Yet we must remember, or we are discouraged, or our work is marred and imperfect. For it is only in Christ, and so co-workers with Him, that anything we do can never be made perfect and beautiful. The weakest and humblest of who are simply faithful will stand at last complete in Him. Even merest fragment of life, as it appears in man’s eyes, if it is truly in Christ and filled with His love & spirit, will appear finished, when presented before Hid divine presence. To do God’s will, what ever that may be, to fill out His plan, is it to be complete in Christ, but the stay on Earth be but for a day, and though the work done fill no great Human plan and leave no brilliant record among men.

Romans 3:21 & 24 “But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the Prophets, 22 even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no Life is not a sprint difference; … 24 being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus”


Prayer :- Lord Jesus thank you for your word, which is a lamp unto our feet. May you give us the strength to walk & work with you to build a legacy that reflects your hand and influence upon our lives. In Jesus Christ's name, Amen.

He's not on his Knees yet

2 Corinthians 6:2   “ . . In an acceptable time I have heard you, And in the day of salvation I have helped you. Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation. . "

Q . . "What of the multitude who have heard, but not believed, to whom the word of this salvation has come, but rejected it?"

   There are some men who have some kind of faith, and these are perhaps in a more dangerous place than those who have none at all. Because they opt to deceive themselves, and fancy that are in a state of grace. Where as really they are in a state of nurture.  Sadly a man only believes that which affect's his own life.
   

Prayer  "God grant that we may each one of us possess this real 'God given' blessing"

   With out faith you are with out God, with out faith you are with out hope, for a true hope can only spring out of 'true faith'. When you are with out faith in Christ, consequently you are with out a Savior, and with out the means of removal of sin, with out a help with which to fight daily the battle of life against sin. So with out faith we are indeed spiritually naked, poor and miserable lost and condemned, with out hope of escape.

   He who has missed this faith has missed the vital point. Had he begun with that, his amiability: his mortality: his benevolence: had been acceptable because in them there would have been the flower of life. The faith that makes them live, but with out this, they are cold & soul less, indeed a mere carcass of virtue void of life.
   
Paul said of love . .
1 Cor 13 v3  ". . And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.. . ."

Q "If a man prays to God, in whom from his own stand point dose not exist, has he not then engaged in an senseless exercise?

• Do you not believe in flexible justice?
• Do you believe in infinite mercey?
• Do you believe in an Omniscience that can not fail to see?
• Do you believe in the Omni-presence that can never failto be where you are?
• . . . Do you believe all this???

   Because if not you do not believe in God. You may believe in your own idea of God, but you do not really believe in God. If you would come to God, you must believe in ALL that he say's He is. In His Word, He reveals as one God, that He is The Father, The Son & The Holy Spirit. Will you accept his statements about Himself? Then will you pray, will you cease delivering an oration to the air. Instead speak into His ear, believing that every word you utter, also believe that He is reading the thoughts that lye at the back of your words??    We should believe that, that if you preach the gospel God must bless you; that it is not a may-be or a mere possiblity that He will, but that if you deliver His message in the full convictiuon that somebody or other is going to get a blessing, there will be a blessing for someone. Very often just in proportion to our faith, it is done unto us.

   Without faith it would be be impossible to please God by the way you talk. Lets put plenty of faith into all we do. . .

• If I have no troubles where is there room for faith?
• How can I trust when I have nothing to trust?

. . You cannot swim in water only up to your ankles, you may go paddling about, but no swimming. But plunge into deep water, strike out like a mad man until you have faith that you will not sink but swim.

   I have heard of this doctor who was severe in his method of treating his patients, but he healed a great many of them. Then cam a man who had a bad leg.  "Well", said the doctor, "I will adopt such-and -such a course with that leg, and I will restore the use to you, so that you shall go away from this place perfectly whole". He told the patient what he was going to do, but the man said "NO, I could not bear to have that done. I shall have to go to someone else". "Just so" said the doctor, "you are not bad enough for me treat you yet. When you get bad enough for me, you will come back". Then say "do what you like to me so long as you gaurentee my retoration". There is many a soul that is not, in the sence, bad enough for Jesus Christ yet. That is to say he thinks he is too good to need to be saved in Christs way. I heard a well known story of a swimmer who went to rescue a man who was drowning. The man was sinking and the spectaters wondered why he did not strike out at once and lay hold of the man drowning. He swam near him, but kept clear of him, letting him go down a second time, and third, after that he swam to him and brought him to shore. Someone then asked "why did you let him sink?". To that he replied "He was to strong for me at first, whilst he was to strong he would have pulled me down with himself, so I let him sink and loose all strength, then I could rescue him". In like manner, some of you will have to go down for a second & third time before you get weak enough to be saved. It is not your strength that qualifies you it's your weakness, it is not your righteousness, it is your sin that qualifies you for Christ. So stop sinking and start living for Christ.

    
   That is the way to seak Him, to come to Him. We must come to Him as the one Living God, to have a real exsistance a true personality. Other wise we can't come to Him. God bestows upon us His Favour, His Grace and blessings of His covenant, as a gracious reward, NOT because of our merit, but because of the merit of His Son, Jesus christ. This we must believe or we have not really come to God.

NKJ . . Heb 10 v23  " . . Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. . "The Message " . . Let’s keep a firm grip on the promises that keep us going. He always keeps his word. . "

   No matter how we dress it up the lesson is clear, you must keep your faith in Him, even nudge Him to remind Him. It's not that God forgets, we have to remember "everything works to Gods time, not ours. Reminding Him just shows we are living in His accordance and have kept faith by praising Him, in the good times and the bad

Actions of Sin (pt 2 of 2)

 

Actions of Sin

 (pt 2 of 2)

Prayer:

Heavenly father thank you for saving us, as we embark on the second part of your word may you show us through your tender mercies how lucky we are to made righteous in you. Bless you word to our hearts, in Christ Jesus name, amen.

   I know we are all Human and will miss the mark. That is if your still having your life ruled/controlled by sin. Then you are not only putting your Salvation in jeopardy, but also your life too.

Romans 6:14 . . Because we . . “for you are not under law” . . sin cannot any longer control your fate. When you don’t obey the Law of Moses, sin cannot dominate. Sin can only control you, when you try and keep the Law. Know this, that Satan's power is wrapped up in the Law. For where ever the Law is, it can only add strength to sin.

   The first came in the ‘Garden of Eden’. For god told Adam & Eve that there is only 1 (one) rule/Law .. in that you must not eat from the tree of Life. . . Genesis 2:17 “ but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.”. . . the Law show a clear Action – Reaction, so simple, and was easy to keep. Though God has set us free from sin by doing away with the law, and it’s restrictions and has now given us ‘Grace’.

Question:

“Was sin (Satan) a verb or noun?

IE ~ Is it an action of sin, but will never dominate your life?

OR

“Was it meant to be a noun, a person ~ place ~ thing?

The Prison of Sin [a place]

The Prison of Righteousness [a place]

Romans 6:14 “For sin shall” [noun] . . “For [the prison] sin shall not have dominion over you”

   With the Law now removed, metaphorically speaking, the walls of the prison are down, and you have been given a pardon (don’t squanderer it). In other words “there will no longer be actions of sin”, Wrong you have been delivered from the ‘sin prison’, now your out from under the prison so Satan can no longer rule/control or have hold of you any more , don’t live there no longer.

Question:- “What was the doctrine/ obedience that was delivered to us from the Apostle Paul?” when he preached the following message of grace ..

Hebrews 8:12 “ For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.” 13 In that He says, “A new covenant,” He has made the first obsolete. Now what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.”

… What Paul refers to here is the teaching of the ‘New Covenant’. Where god had said .. I will .. I will .. I will. I feel this one of the most important point to get across, Jesus Christ said “most assuredly” to get over His point that was important. It’s like saying today ..’Honestly or I’m telling you truth’. If you believe in God, and you’ll be obedient too God, who have been merciful unto your righteousness, your sin’s and iniquities He’ll remember your sins NO more. You used to be a slave in your prison of sin, but the teaching has come and decided to receive what the blood has done for you, and now that you have received the teaching of Grace. So what the blood has & will do for you.

   This blood, is what has sprung you out of prison, that was the ransom, your now no longer being held a slave/captive in prison any more. You have now moved from the prison of Sin, now your the prisoner of righteousness, if you want to call it that ... Romans 6:18 “And having been set free from sin, you became slaves of righteousness” … we are all sinner because of ‘one man’s’ actions [Adam] to be sinners no longer, all we need to do is .. be born-again’

   It is so unfair that we are all sinners, the moment we leave our mother womb, band draw our first breath. We are tarnished with the same brush, even though we weren’t there when Adam ate from the tree of life.

# I’m the Righteousness of God #

Question:-”Just as we are born in to sin because of Adam,

so have we been made righteous because of one man?” [Jesus].

   His name of cause … Jesus Christ … (The same thing happened here as it did because of Adam). We did nothing when ‘Born-again’ to become righteous. I have now freely; Willingly become a prisoner of Righteousness, through what one man did [for me]. I am now the Righteousness of God, I did nothing (Earthly) to be righteous, but I was ‘made’ Righteous’ because of Christ Jesus actions, glory be to God, for His goodness & mercies. 

Romans 6:19 “I speak in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. For just as you presented your members as slaves of uncleanness, and of lawlessness leading to more lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves of righteousness for holiness”

   When you were in the prison of sin do you remember doing ‘Righteous’ things like giving money to the ‘poor; homeless or needy?’ Even doing good deeds for the less fortunate? Do you think doing any of these good deeds got you out of the prison of Sin? There is, and will always be only one way out, that is to be ‘born-again’. From one man we have received, for what he did (Jesus) did through His blood, then be delivered from Sin and unto righteousness.

   All it seems throughout this is ask questions after questions, so as not to disappoint, ‘If you Sin whilst in the prison of Righteousness, will it not result in you being dismissed? and our Heavenly Father letting it be known His displeasure in you? We are not taught to fear the Lord for nothing …

Deuteronomy 6:2 “that you may fear the Lord your God”

Psalms 33:8 “Let all the earth fear the Lord; Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him”

Proverbs 3:7 “Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the Lord and depart from evil”

… you have been established in the righteousness of God for all those who believe. You now know that you now no longer want to keep sinning. Because God is going to help you, reach in and change those [sin] desires, so that you no longer have the urge to sin anymore. . .

• God knows the best way to help you become clean ..

• Only God knows how to make you Holy ..

• Only God can help you to doing it right ..

… because once you become the Righteousness of God, after time you will start doing things right without giving it a second thought.

   In the prison of Righteousness, it’s the ‘Change-Chamber’, that will change your heart from old sin nature, and bring you out of being addicted to your old self, to one of only want to doing things right. Now don’t let sin convict or condemn you. Instead now all your heart wants is continue to be obedient to your faith and that God has been merciful to your unrighteousness, and your sin and iniquity, He remembers not one. He our Father God in Heaven has taken care of the Sin factor/actions/problems, and never stops taking care of our sin.

NB: Right Believing = Right Living

# Once you wake up, and smell the coffee, as it were, you will see things in a whole new way. 

You won’t want to sin anymore, and (here’s the best bit) you’ll find you don’t

want to either #
